Delphix and Datical Partner to Bring Modern Data Management to DevOps

MENLO PARK, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 27, 2015) - Delphix, the market leader in Data as a Service, and Datical, the leading provider of Database Lifecycle Management, today announced a new strategic partnership that combines the powerful Delphix Data as a Service (DaaS) platform with Datical's agile database deployment solution, bringing modern data management to the rapidly growing DevOps space.

Enterprises are experiencing a sense of urgency to accelerate application projects and bring to market higher-quality code faster than ever. This enables them to stay competitive in dynamic, app-driven industries. Tools and processes for developing and managing code are available today, yet data management remains the greatest barrier to effective DevOps and continuous delivery.

Delphix provides a software solution for creating on-demand virtual copies of full production databases via self-service access and without associated infrastructure costs. Application teams can create as many copies as needed, work on them in parallel without affecting one another, and refresh or reset each copy back to any point in time. Delphix also provides integrated data masking to ensure sensitive production data is secure during development and testing.

Datical provides a complementary solution for packaging, validating and deploying database schema changes in support of application delivery. Datical easily integrates code changes into a master copy, ensuring the master matches production dependencies so apps can be tested and migrated to production more quickly and with less risk.

The combined offering enables application teams to treat their databases like codebases: Users can create branches at different points in time, check out multiple copies and work on them independently, and seamlessly check in the code changes for automated validation and deployment. As a result, application teams can cut project schedules in half while delivering better production code than they could previously.

"Enterprise IT organizations need the right solutions for delivering better applications in less time as the demand from users continues to rise," said Derek Hutson, Datical CEO. "Together with Delphix, we can virtualize, secure and integrate databases within application projects to accelerate the delivery of products and services to end users."

"Enterprise data can be cumbersome, slow and expensive to manage, leading to sluggish delivery of high-quality software," said Rick Caccia, chief marketing officer, Delphix. "Datical and Delphix can enable true continuous delivery in support of DevOps initiatives by eliminating the time and effort needed with current data management approaches."
